Chelsea destroy Bolton in away win
Victory moves Blues up to fourth in Premier League.
BOLTON:
Didier Drogba, Florent Malouda, Nicolas Anelka and Ramires were all on target as Chelsea ended their miserable run of away form with a 4-0 victory at Bolton to keep alive their dim hopes of the Premier League title.
Carlo Ancelotti’s side had fallen away from contention for the title with a record of one win in nine matches but they have now won their past eight matches at the Reebok Stadium without conceding a goal. Victory moved them up to fourth.
Drogba gave Chelsea an early lead with his 10th of the season and Malouda equalled that tally just before half time. Anelka then added a third goal before Ramires scored a fourth, his first goal for the club.
